Here it is: [root@CrazyDesign ~]# ls -la /var/www/html/web9 total 108 drwxr-xr-x 8 apache web9 4096 May 18 04:00 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 18 01:54 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 apache web9 4096 May 17 23:49 cgi-bin -rw------- 1 web9_alex web9 24 May 18 01:52 .forward -rw-rw-r-- 1 root web9 24 May 18 04:00 .htpasswd -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 4610 May 17 23:51 index.html drwxr-xr-x 2 apache web9 4096 May 18 00:01 log lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 May 18 01:52 Maildir -> /var/www/html/web9/user/web9_alex/Maildir drwxrwxrwx 2 apache web9 4096 May 17 23:49 phptmp -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 485 May 18 01:52 .procmailrc drwxr-xr-x 2 apache web9 4096 May 17 23:49 ssl drwxr-xr-x 3 apache web9 4096 May 17 23:49 user lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 49 May 18 01:52 .vacation.cache -> /var/www/html/web9/user/web9_alex/.vacation.cache drwxrwxr-x 4 apache web9 4096 May 18 04:00 web
No. That is an user i have made to test the ISPconfig control panel. It work's just fine excepting the FTP connection and e-mail. The biggest problem is the FTP connection. That is what i want you or someone else to help me to solve. If you want of course. I would be more than thankfull.
/var/www/html/web9 isn't the homedir of web9_alex, so he should not have access to that directory. What's in /etc/vsftpd.conf?
doesn't matter the user or the folder that user has. it gioves me the same error. i do not have vsftpd.conf i only have: vsftpd_127.0.0.1.conf vsftpd_192.168.1.2.conf vsftpd_my.ip.conf if i change the folder where the site's will be uploaded ( meaning if i put instead of /var/www/html /home/public_html) i can connect by ftp and upload/download . but the problem is that if i do this i can't see the site by typing in a browser http://my-ip/user/
What's the output of Code: ls -la /etc/vsftp* ? You cannot use an IP address to access a web site created with ISPConfig. These web sites are name-based vhosts. i.e. you must always use the appropriate FQDN to see the site.
